Love Makes A Family

Surprise!

"Hey there pretty lady..." Alex hears as she adjusts her eyes to the morning sun creeping through the curtains.

She groans pleasantly as Kelley wraps her strong arms around her. She feels wet kisses on her neck, and giggles as Kelley kisses farther and farther down her chest.

"Good morning babies," Kelley then adds as she presses four light kisses to Al's stomach. That's right, four...

The couple found out they're expecting quadruplets just recently. Alex is just starting her 7 month now, and the babies are expected to be born in about 3 weeks. Both Alex and Kelley are a total nervous wreck, but they're excited to meet them.

"Wait, that means we need to figure out 4 new names? We don't even know their genders..." Kelley chuckles as Alex whips out her laptop.

"Well I think it will be easier to start with middle names, then we can figure out the first names. We'll choose 4 boys and then 4 girls,"

"Oh my god if we have 4 boys," Kelley laughs.

"What's wrong with 4 boys?" Al asks.

"Baby what experience do we have with boys...I have a gay brother and you have no brother..."

"You're right," Alex laughs. She continues. "...I definitely want Michael for my dad,"

"Alright..." Kel agrees. "...and Daniel for my dad,"

"And Christopher?" Alex then says.

"Only if you're alright with it babe," Kelley answers.

A smile creeps across Alex's face. "...Kel I love your brother. There's no way we could leave him out,"

Kelley chuckles as she kisses her wife's cheek. "How about Thomas?" She then says.

"Thomas?" Alex says.

"Yea it's only the first name of your favorite person ever..." Kelley grins. She's totally right, Alex couldn't leave her beloved grandfather out.

"Well, then it's settled..." She grins.

"And for girls..." Kelley says as she strokes her wife's face. "...I have absolutely no idea,"

That makes Alex laugh. "How about Morgan for all three of them," Kelley continues.

"Yea real creative Kel,"

"Aw come on...the name's after the strongest, most beautiful person on the planet,"

"You're sweet baby," Alex smiles as she brings in Kelley for a long-awaited passionate kiss.

The two break and Alex whispers onto Kelley's lips. "But I think the strongest, most beautiful person in the world is sitting right next to me,"

Kelley grins as she stares into Alex's ocean blue eyes. "Not possible..." she rebuts "...the strongest, most beautiful person in the world has given life to my five children. There's no contest here,"

Alex chuckles.

"What..." Kel asks. "...you still don't believe me?"

"No..." Alex replies as she rests her hand on Kelley's. "...no it's just that you said five," she chuckles again.

"Big number huh,"

"Very big..." Alex smiles. "...some wake up call for Molly. Going from only child to oldest of five,"

"Well she doesn't really know what's going on," Kelley chuckles as continues looking at her wife.

"I will seriously never be able to repay you for this Al. I love you so freaking much,"

Alex looks up into Kelley's eyes and grins. "...it's nothing,"

"Quiet sayin it's nothing," Kelley laughs. "...it's huge babe. Our kids could make up a whole basketball team,"

"Oh man how are we gonna do it," Alex sighs.

"I don't know..." Kel says sincerely back. "...but we'll figure it out,"

Having 4 babies has been a concept to Kelley and Alex for the past few months. They didn't realize until now how huge a step it is until recently.

"Speaking of figuring stuff out," Alex then adds. "...you need to finish that nursery ASAP,"

Kelley sighs. "...fine," she retorts as she stands up.

"You need anything?" She says before she leaves.

"Just 4 built cribs by tonight," Al winks.

"You do know how to get under my skin Ms. Morgan," Kel jokes as she shakes her head.

"That's Ms.Morgan-O'Hara to you butch," Alex answers with a jokingly dead stare into her wife's eyes.

"How could I ever be annoyed at you," Kelley says softly as she leans down to Al's lips and kisses them. "...I love ya too dang much,"
